RIP Pickles

Pickles May 2007 – November 8th, 2009

Pickles, the eldest sister of the departed Toki Yellowtooth, passed away Sunday November 8th, 2009 around 5pm possibly from swine flu or possibly from the bleeding butt tumor.……anyways,

Pickles was a rotund, renaissance gal built the way women should be. As woman of the night, Pickles never refused the alluring darkness of an open male pant leg.

To say she loved food would be an understatement, pickles LIVED for food, covering her locker door with sexy hearted food pin-ups, writing it fan letters and was even occasionally seen signing her name Mrs. Pickles-Food on her trapper keeper.

Never one to be satisfied Pickles would win paws-down any food eating contest with her ability to fit two crackers in her mouth, while holding one in each paw as she scuttled away to hide her winnings. (Although she could probably win just by sitting on the opponent. )

120 Madison will miss their caged mascot, and I will miss you, you furry food disposal. xxx

when tv is good...its GOOD.

fourth day of illness, so far I've watched:
first season of twin peaks, both die hards, and I'm almost done the first season of Jericho.



I kinda really love being sick, can't wait for the holidays...seriously.

return to the blogsphere

because I've been sick and isolated and talking to the internets is something to do that's not homework.

for fake advertising is best.

YES.

also, p.s I have a summer job!

man of bat!

might want to watch this on mute, sorry for the U2.

i design graphics.

Some logos I've been bustin' my ass on at skool.

this guy is for a health drink.



*note, fuck the last post. I'll wait till school is over before I get all motivated n'shit.

love

One thing I love more than a great title sequence, is when a great show that I love has a great title sequence. seriously. watch. this. show.

these are the beats

poster using the typeface I made. Unfortunately the print turned out more of a snot green then beige, but it's too expensive to test print on my budget.

I've got a list of demands, written on the palm of my hand.

I was listening to a Saul Williams song thinking about how it's almost impossible to sit still while listening to it, and while youtubing found that Nike noticed exactly that.

these people made me.

happy birthdays mom & dad!

lost love

So a housemate got me into Lost. I've only watched the first season as I have shit to do, but I love it so. The intro especially makes me jizz design juice.



then why...WHY does the rest of their advertising look like this:


oh great, a typeface that every myspace kid/punkmetal band/designer looking for a "grungy font" uses. oh, I get it, cracks in the typeface are for like, the rocks, cuz they are like, on an island right? It may be literal but expressively I feel no LOST, whereas the other logo looks way more uncertain, mysterious and scary.

got daym

Taking ancient maori war dances to the field. The new zealand team may as well be saying yo french guys, bend over.

redecorating

So last week was my turn to clean the bathroom so I decided to add a lil sumthang.

happy birthday mr. thomas magnum

because today is Tom Selleck's birthday and I've loved him forever.

groove.

sometimes projects are fun yo.

Ad-off

The gorilla cadbury's ad is probably my favouritest ad ever. Recently the company released the new eyebrows ad, and for me, it just doesn't deliver...AS much. Then again gorillas + Phil Collins + Chocolate = one ad very hard to outdo.

Comparative:

New Yearizzle

So 2009 is going to rock. I can feel it. I managed to save a branding project I did for the asthma society of canada before my hard-drive took off down the ol dusty trail.
